What type of camping matress do you use? Therma-rest sell a chair kit to turn your matress into a camp chair. I use these for bike camping trips. It's light and rolls up inside the air matress so takes no more space than the matress on its own. The double bonus is that unlike a normal canvass chair it keeps your back and your butt warm while your sipping a bud by the fire of an evening.

Yes I know about the Kermit chair and it's a very good pick. There are also the chairs from GCI the PICO and the Trail sling that are sturdy , compact and quick to setup.Any of you have experience with the GCI chairs.

<!-- icon and title --> Trail Sling Ultralight Chair
<hr style="color: rgb(87, 87, 87);" size="1"> <!-- / icon and title --> <!-- message --> I went ahead and bought the Trail Sling Ultralight chair from Campmor for $19.97. The reason I bought it was the size and weight. At only 16.5 inches long and weighs only 2lb 3 oz the chair fits nicely into my stock KTM 950 paniers.

The chair comes in a nice package

The storage bag has two compartments one for the chair frame and the other for the back Seat support. Here is a pic of the chair out of the storage bag

Here is the frame setup. The Frame is 22 inches long

Here is a pic of the side view of the frame. Stands at 22 inches

And the finish product

Here is a pic with me in it. The chair is very comfortable to sit in. I had no problems getting in or out of it. You can see the frame does not hit the back. I weigh in at 175lbs.

Expensive, I think Costco has them cheaper, but I used it for 80% of the weekends last year at my daughter's softball games and it has held up well. Takes about 2 secs to setup and is quite comfy. I strap it right on my Givi Trunk without any issues.

I tried a friends Trail Sling before I got my Kermit and thought it was uncomfortable on the back in that "slumped" sitting position, plus I had no place to put my arms except let them drag on the ground or keep them crossed in my lap.
